[PATCH 1/2] x86/xen: don't let xen_pv_play_dead() return



A function called via the paravirt play_dead() hook should not return
to the caller.

xen_pv_play_dead() has a problem in this regard, as it currently will
return in case an offlined cpu is brought to life again. This can be
changed only by doing basically a longjmp() to cpu_bringup_and_idle(),
as the hypercall for bringing down the cpu will just return when the
cpu is coming up again. Just re-initializing the cpu isn't possible,
as the Xen hypervisor will deny that operation.

So introduce xen_cpu_bringup_again() resetting the stack and calling
cpu_bringup_and_idle(), which can be called after HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op()
in xen_pv_play_dead().
